THE LAWS OF RAIL VEHICLE RUNNING BEHAVIOR ON TRACK AND ON TEST BENCHES

DIE GESETZMAESSIGKEITEN DES LAUFVERHALTENS VON SCHIENENFAHRZEUGEN IM GLEIS UND AUF ROLLPRUEFSTANDEN

Theoretical and mathematical methods have been developed for building test benches for examining rail vehicle running behaviour in order to obtain close correlation between results on the test bench and results on track. The running behaviour of a bogie vehicle on the test bench can be described by means of equations established for bogies and for vehicle bodies. Specific data on running behaviour can be obtained by means of this system of equations.
